David Ornstein revealed on Friday that the Magpie is quick to reject the Reds’ first official offer for the Swedish superstar.<\/p>\n
There are rumours that Isak has already agreed to a personal term for the move to Anfield. Speaking live on Sky Sports, Downey revealed his next step.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope Liverpool will return with their second formal offer, and they are preparing that formal offer as we speak.<\/em> said the Northeast-based journalist.<\/p>\n He continued: “This could be the biggest transfer of the summer. If Liverpool were to get their guy, it would be a Premier League record.”<\/em><\/p>\n Of course, there was additional conversation about how the Swedes fit into Hugo Ekitique. Hugo Ekitike arrived from Entracht Frankfurt on a deal worth \u00a379 million if the add-ons were met.<\/p>\n BBC tactical writer Alex Kebre suggests that the French use ISAK as the out-and-out number 9, deployed from the left.<\/p>\n “Liverpool was able to deploy a squeezed 4-2-3-1. Of which Sarah and Ekitique are narrow, so they act as ten numbers on either side of Florian Wiltz, with widths provided in two flight fullbacks.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n “Jeremy Frimon is a very aggressive right-back and his presence is likely to push Sarah into more infield anyway, but Ekitique tends to fall into 10 positions even when he starts at age nine.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n One thing that’s for sure is that it brings Liverpool, a guaranteed clinical finisher Isak thought he was buying alongside Darwinnes three summers ago.<\/p>\n Uruguay International, which is set to leave this summer if ISAK participates, scored five Premier League goals from 5.8 last season. Meanwhile, Newcastle’s Starman managed 23 strikes from a projected 20.3 target, and he performed XG in all three seasons in the UK.<\/p>\n Isak is believed to be training alone in Spain as Newcastle captain Kieran Trippier commented on the situation earlier this week. “Alex suffers a thigh injury, and that’s the reality.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cPersonally, I don’t think there’s any point in coming here if he can’t play any game.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cHe’s doing rehabilitation, but we have to do what we have to do with the players we have.<\/em><\/p>\n “We’re having a tough game coming, but now we’re stuck together as a team, and we hope that Alex will come back when he’s fully healthy.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sky Sports Journalist Keith Downey shared the news live from outside St. James on Friday afternoon after the opening bid for Liverpool’s Alexander Isaac.
